System Requirements:

  • Microsoft Windows 7, Vista or XP
  • .NET Framework 2.0. The installer will download and install the .NET libraries from Microsoft, if you don't have it already on your computer.

Installation:

  • Run the setup.exe download file.

You must be connected to the internet. This is because setup.exe must download the full installation from the TackTracker.com website. Also, if you don't have .NET 2.0 installed, it will download and install .NET from the Microsoft web site. (If having trouble, you can install .NET 2.0 from here.)

BT-Q1000X USB Driver

If you have a QStarz BT-Q1000X GPS, you will also need to install the USB driver. 

Download USB Driver (includes Windows 7 support)

The driver is provided in a .zip archive which you will need to unpack into a temporary folder.  Then run InstallDriver.exe.

The driver is also obtained by installing the software supplied on the mini-CD with your GPS, or from the QStarz download page.  However the current mini-CD's are an older version that do not support Windows 7.
